What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Indiana
I live in Illinois but the will was in Indiana. mother died over a year ago and the will divided the money up evenly among surviving children and my sister was executor. originally there was supposedly only around $50000 to be split. it only took a couple of months to move it and take care of it. I knew there was more but not sure how to prove it then along comes a letter from a lawyer who said they missed on account that was $87000 and sent paperwork to open it up again last December and according to court records the judge prepared the final letter to the lawyer the first part of April. I have contacted him twice since then and he said they had to sign some paperwork and it was supposedly only a few weeks and would be taken care of. called middle of July and he said it should be taken care of by the first of August. Nothing., I did get a letter from him originally that I could change and get my own attorney but since they did the first part it should be ok. problem is I do not get along with my sister and it's odd that my mother lived with her 8 years to the age of 94 and she didn't know there was $87000 stock that paid dividends at her mail at the end of a lane. Can they drag this out for spite and can I contact the judge who this was assigned to.
